You are exactly right all the way round! You must have lived in the LA area around that time. I'm from Compton, and it took a long time to get a copy of it but I did finally! [GLEN FROM COMPTON]

clarence beeks was also the name of a character in the movie "Trading Places". Wonder if that was by design or just a coincidence.

@CriticalListener : my condolences.... no problems at all. I'm not very advanced technically...however, I DO know how to copy using my CD writer..so if you want a copy, just send me your mailing address, and I'll have one to you within a month FOC...no sweat either way.

@kevinherbert Sorry it's taken me so long to respond. We've had a death in the family, other problems, and I honestly was only going thru my inbox here tonight! I have it on an LP, and I was given one of those players that turns it into something the computer can use. But I'd be lying if I said I'd be getting to it any time soon. Would it be possible for you to download it here on YouTube? Again, my apology for not having seen your offer sooner. Thanks very much for the offer.

@zhokandawe You're absolutely right about "All of Me"--it's one of the best versions of the song ever made. It swings, it's funny, it's irresistable! Thirty years ago I did a paper on him in college. I was able to talk to the owner of the Old Wells Record Shop who told me Beeks had gotten into junk and was "parking cars in LA, according to the last rumor". That was roughly a year before he died. There was no way for me to confirm that (this being years before the internet).
